I Voted!

[tanaqui]

Use this post to tell us you voted -- whether today, in early voting or by mail -- and what it was like.

Was it busy when you voted? Did you have any nice encounters and conversations when you went to vote? See any good or unexpected signs? Or any cute dogs? (Cute dogs at polling stations are a bit of a tradition in the UK -- I don't know if it's the same in the US!)

Did you persuade any friends, family or co-workers to go and vote?

Oh, and have a sticker.

I voted first thing this morning (I was ballot #18 at my precinct, they were doing steady business with a short line when I left at 7:12 or so...)

There was indeed a cute dog, and I learned by listening to one of his owners chat with someone who asked to come pet the nice dog that his other human had just gotten citizenship and was inside voting for the first time.

(And then I helped someone find the right precinct on the way out, she'd just moved.)

And I have a sticker.

A cute dog AND an inspiring story? JACKPOT!

Also, well done for helping someone find the right place to vote. :-)
